Equine Medicine Symposium
"Major and Minor Disasters"
April 21, 2007

This year's SCAEEP annual symposium is on April 21, 2007, and will cover a variety of health-related talks and wetlabs conducted by UC Davis faculty and residents for the general horse owner.

Proceeds from the symposium will go to help fund wetlabs and other activities, as well as to help send students to the annual AAEP Convention in December (in 2006, several students attended in San Antonio, TX) and when possible, to the annual AAEP Opportunities in Equine Practice seminar for 3rd year veterinary students.

The symposium last year was a success. Click here for more about the 2006 Symposium.
